The Mid-August Astros Rant

Far be it from me to pretend that I know more than a Major League Baseball manager like Phil Garner or a General Manager like Tim Purpura but...what the FUCK is going on?
We have problems with our pitching and Brandon Backe is on the DL again, what do they do? They bring in Wandy Rodriguez again. He was Round Rocked for a reason. Wandy comes in and does a TERRIBLE job. What do they do? Allow him another chance....another chance when Chris Sampson is wasted in Round Rock as we speak? What about Matt Albers? What about Dave Borkowski?
It's almost like they are doing the opposite of what they SHOULD be doing. Is this sabotage? Have they stolen the plot from the movie Major League?

It's not all the pitchers' fault, though. There has been NO run support. Luke Scott can't carry the team and Aubrey Huff's two homeruns last night were wasted.

I don't see a fat lady singing yet, but she's warming up.

'Far be it from ME to pretend etc........'no?

PS
Speaking as a fat guy I'm warming up and you do not want to hear me sing although Wednesday afternoon they are winning 7-3 top of the 8th it would be nice to see a win.

You just can't see that invisible "me". It's for preferred readers only.
But, since you are such a good proof reader, I'll move you to "preferred reader" status.

Speaking as a fat chick, I was warming up too but now I'm excited about this win.
(I posted an anonymous fat lady singing because who wants to see MY fat ass on this blog?) ;)

'Preferred Reader' do i get a Tee Shirt, badge, sticker, anything...

didn't you have afternoon sex last week your ass could already be on the 'net.

Seriously I do feel sorry for those poor girls who pose and then break up w/the boyfriend who post them on the 'net. That is harsh.

PS i think the astros are just teasing you they'll suck again. soon.

Only in the age of the internet do we equate having sex with having our naked pics on the net.

See, that's why I don't pose for nude pics. Well...that and it usually breaks the camera. :(

If you have someone else take the pics it should work out much better.
